How bad is life going for someone when they get mad enough at paint to stand on a retail sales counter?

Probably not as bad as you're thinking, he's actually been waiting for this moment for years.

I'm not quite following you. Are you suggesting this is pent up righteous indignation? Or like they feel it is an injustice so egregious they now get to "make a stand" or something?

[-] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 13 points 10 months ago

I think the suggestion is that he's always wanted to stand on the desk, and was just angry enough to feel justified in doing so.

I'm imagining a grown man indignantly yelling about his Warner Houses Velvet Peacock actually being Royal Garter but secretly having the time of his life standing on the counter. So happy he can see soooo far, almost to the other side of the store! "It's like I'm a giant, rarrrr!" he thinks.

is “Today at my retail job” a community, because it should be

Customer facing retail workers are a unrecognized heroes of our society. They face the worst of us and have to keep their sanity in check usually for the lowest wages an employer can get away with. Some countries have compulsory military service. I would support legislation making compulsory customer service in a public facing role a requirement.

Though it has been decades since I worked customer facing retail, the cruel lessons I learned about how people treat others they have power over are absolutely foundational to my own interactions with customer facing workers. I work to inject patience, understanding, and respect when I can to those in customer facing roles. If I hadn't worked retail, I can't dismiss horrifying the possibility I might be standing on a paint counter today myself secure in my incorrect convictions and ignorant of my hubris.

Surprised that the tales from subs from reddit haven't been copied over.

Remember, if you see someone drinking laundry detergent, no you didn't.

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

I wonder what it tastes like. I guess there's only one way to find out. BRB I'm goin' to Walmart...

[-] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

It tastes like your oesophagus turning into dead tissue.

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Oh dang you must have gotten to Walmart before I did. Thanks for letting us know how the detergent tasted.

You chew them? I thought you had to suck on them. 🤔

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 29 points 10 months ago

I use them to make stock

[-] saruwatarikooji@lemmy.world 63 points 10 months ago

Pregnant woman are supposed to report cravings like that to their doctor... Apparently it can be a symptom of a serious problem.

I saw a neighbor fill his lawnmower with gas, take the can and take a huge swig. He capped it and started his lawnmower like nothing. so many questions.

[-] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 41 points 10 months ago

alcohol maybe?

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 20 points 10 months ago

Yeah you'd definitely have to be shit faced to take a swig of gasoline

I had a friend in high school. We were at a gas station, and he went in to get some additive to put in his tank. On the way back to his car he unscrewed the cap, and took a big swig. The bottle still had the foil cap, so he wasn't actually drinking anything; he just did it for the reaction. The thing was, he didn't actually check if anyone was watching.

Sometimes people are just weird...

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 27 points 10 months ago

Well you obviously saw him do it, so he must've known in his peripheral vision that you were watching. That's all the thrill he needed.

[-] occhionaut@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

If he checked before he committed, it would devalue the bit if anyone noticed! Its infinitely funnier to turn around like you were caught with a hand in the cookie jar lol

Sounds more like being fucked with for lulz. Like walking around drinking blue Gatorade out of a windex bottle.

Using old vodka bottles for water.

Yeah this sounds like a prank. You could easily wash out an old detergent bottle and fill it with water or something

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 25 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

This feels like a fun thing to do on the weekend. Just go to Walmart with a cleaned out bottle of detergent filled with the beverage of your choice and make people think you're drinking Gain. If they ask you what your problem is, assure them you intend to pay.

I know in person someone who used to eat bar soap. She eventually had to be hospitalized and confessed it to her family. She would eat a lot of other weird things too, and didn't even understand why people were so shocked about it. In the end, she had to undergo a psychiatric treatment.

"I took a chug of detergent at Walmart and this happened" video dropping soon

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Not to be that guy but I am betting it is more likely that somehow he didn't see that happening vs the almost certain suicide attempt he thinks he saw.
